Beautiful bottle, beautiful pour...gorgeous peachy hue, with some floatabilities, running ’round, under a shockingly pristine, lacily, bubbilly, off-whitish head.
Aroma: airy, other-worldly, yeastily aberrant, if you know what I mean, citric and somewhat sweetish...wonderful fruit...time to drink, isn’t it?
Yum, again, if I haven’t said so before, a fully yeasty, citric bent...deliciousness abounds here...odddly, I was more impressed with the flavor of Nora, but the Super appears to be a Belgian Tripel style that falls within guidelines, but doesn’t go too much further beyond...it’s delicious, though ...enjoy it!

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Oct 30, 2004 Pours a hazy brown amber with a large yellow short lasting head. Well despite paying top $ for this this some 2 months ago and storing it in the fridge at all times I have to say I am very disappointed with this beer and I’m beginning to suspect the importer and/or bottle shop may not have treated it appropriately. I’m afraid I’m gonna have to try this in Europe next time I’m there. The brewery is not too far from my cousin’s place in Torino so there is every chance this will happen. Anyway I will rate it as I saw it and amend it next time I rate it. The aroma is a medium medicianal friars balsam? and bandaid with a touch of biscuity malt. Flavour wise it tastes like an old Chimay, stale watery yeasty caramel malty with the same medicinal touches as in the aroma. My colleage says he can get the apricot at the end but I’m nowhere on this. I don’t like rating off beers so I’m including this for compartive purposes only. MAP (1089), Lakewood, Ohio, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 20, 2004 Amber color with a thick cream head and lots of things floating around busily in the body. Aroma is sweet and spicy at the same time. Smell of lemon, apricot and apples balanced with coriander and clove. Falvor has a ciderish hint of apples withing a stellar belgian strong. A very warming feel in this combined with an ending bitterness that is slightly grassy and makes this end with a lemony taste. Wonderful beer.
